In accordance with its disclosure policy, Hitachi is implementing the fair and appropriate disclosure of such information as management strategies and financial information. In addition, Hitachi is aggressively conducting dialogues through such means as meetings with shareholders and investors, investor relations (IR) events, and the general meeting of shareholders.
In fiscal 2017, in addition to quarterly financial results briefings and presentations on the progress made with the 2018 Mid-term Management Plan, we hosted the eighth consecutive "Hitachi IR Day" event, in which senior managers from each business presented business strategies and management policies under the plan.
Other IR events included a briefing on the original value being created in R&D divisions and a tour of the Omika Works as part of promoting better understanding of the Lumada business. Members of senior management also continued to visit institutional investors and analysts in North America, Europe and Asia to explain their business strategies for realizing medium- to long-term growth. During the year, a total of around 600 such meetings with institutional investors and analysts were held in Japan and overseas. Hitachi also organized briefings to help individual investors gain a better understanding of the company. The feedback gained from these IR events is reflected in management and business operations as part of efforts to build enterprise value.
We also post briefing materials and business performance as well as stock price trend charts in a timely manner on our IR website. Aiming to continuously enhance our information disclosure, we introduced a new responsive design on our website for improved browsing convenience from smartphones and tablets.
